We were recently given responsibility for a C# MVC app. The app appears to follow standard conventions pursuant to a beginners video I watched. For instance as the video described structure I looked at the app and saw the same with proper naming conventions as if textbook. Not seeing pages similar to other apps where the user goes from page to page, and the URL changes corresponding to each page, intrigues me.

I don't want to take a full course to learn this if I don't have to. I have years of experience and would like to know resources that take advantage of what I already know. For instance I found a nice chart detailing the MVC lifecycle starting with the client, going through the server, then back out to the client.

From what I saw it should start with Global.asax, but that doesn't contain much. I want to run the app on my workstation so I can use that to deploy to a test server and from there a production server, eventually. I compile and start the app on my workstation fine, but it goes to the authentication page for our agency, and from there to the production app. I want it to stay on my workstation, but don't see where to comment that out. Does this just use an MVC engine which merely reads configuration files? I can't find where to trace code.
